How many solar panels would it take….

Five of the Dumbest Things said about Global Warming (courtesy Rolling Stone Magazine)

“Snow skiing will be hurt – but water skiing will benefit” This “text book” utterance was made by a Yale economist in 1990.

Such comments only reinforces my opinion that the facility at Ivy League universities is littered with individuals who believe the world functions like the textbook theories they so cherish.

“We must demand that more coal be burned to save the earth from global cooling.”

Not surprisingly, this came from Don Blankenship, the then head of coal company Massey Energy.

God buried fossil fuels “because he loves to see us find them.”

Oh brother, that one is a doozy. Bryan Fischer at the American Family Association is credit with that divinely stupid notion.

“I thought it must be true until I found out what it cost.”

Senator Inhofe evidently made this comment on the Rachel Maddow Show in 2012. Why is a politician saying something like this not surprising?

Safeguarding the climate is “a worldview that elevates the Earth above man.” Another political pearl of wisdom. This time it was Rick Santorum who also called climate science a “phony theory”.

You’d think a politician would know phony when they see it given being phony is what most of them do best.
